Great Bridge, VA 10/17/16

 Railroad Bridge closed...
Railroad bridge open...now we can go....
 Sight seeing
 Everybody that was waiting to come through the
Railroad Bridge
 Norfolk Southern Railroad Bridge (2nd bridge)
Tug pulling in to grab the big guy!
 We are here at Great Bridge and managed to get one of the last free
docks here before everyone else following us!
 As you can see it's not very wide here...but better than on the other
side of the bridge...even less room there
 These cruisers are crazy man! The guy pulls up next to the boat
and said he wanted to go to land and asked if he could tie off next to
him...the other guy said yes, and that's where he stayed the rest of the
night...and...they didn't get off the boat!
 Hopefully when another one of these guys comes through they will see
the two tied together!
 Bob and I thought this sign was going to say....no docking....
 Yay!  24 hours only...and it appears as though that may
have changed for a bit....
This picture is the rest of the boats that are coming from the Lock
now...there were 23 in the lock with us! 
 
We did not make it very far today.  In fact, we went 11 miles and it took us 4 hours.  Between, boaters, bridges, tugs, etc. we have already called it a day.  We just didn't feel like going until 7:30 tonight and dealing with all the traffic.  So, today we go for a walk. Yay!!!
